Forecasts

Gringo D'ainay (7/4), The Blind Piper (15/8), Mount Brown (2/1), Laffite (15/2), Dont Doubt Me (10/1), Hooklinesinker (12/1), Fahrenheit De Lecu (14/1), Paddy Rocket (20/1), Le Fou's Keep (22/1), Onesoc (40/1), Kilbarry Merlot (40/1), The Deise Man (66/1), Eileens Boy (80/1), Rio Biumoso (80/1), Gelisko (100/1)

A very weak maiden in which it may pay to side with MOUNT BROWN. He was the only one to make up any inroads from those who raced off the pace when fifth in a big-field Fairyhouse event on hurdles bow 5 weeks ago and may build on that. The Blind Piper and hurdles-debutant Laffite may emerge next best.
